TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to an oral cleaning tool, and more particularly to a multi-functional visual electric toothbrush for cleaning teeth, tooth gaps and an oral cavity.

BACKGROUND

An electric toothbrush in the prior art has 30,000 vibrations or more per minute, which can cause a large amount of tiny bubbles in the mixture of toothpaste and water in an oral cavity, and attempts to use the pressure generated when the bubbles burst to achieve the purpose of cleaning dirt deep into tooth gaps. Even so, food debris embedded in the tooth gaps is still difficult to remove completely by means of the electric toothbrush in the prior art.

With age increase or pathological reasons, it is very easy to cause gingival atrophy and enlargement of tooth gaps, and it is very prone to causing food debris. If the oral cavity cannot be cleaned in time, on the one hand, bad breath may be produced, and on the other hand, various dental diseases, oral diseases, and especially periodontitis may occur.

In view of this situation, various products such as dental floss, interdental brushes and water floss have been developed on the current market for assisting users in use. Although there are products such as dental floss and interdental brushes of various structures and different specifications on the market today, the existing products are generally disadvantageous in that it is unlikely to observe tooth gaps. Especially when cleaning a gap between the third molar and the second molar or a gap between the second molar and the first molar or a gap between the first molar and the second premolar, because the position of a tooth gap to be cleaned is deep in the oral cavity, the light is very dark in the cleaned part, a user cannot clearly see the tooth gap to be cleaned and can operate only by feeling, which may cause bleeding or injury to gums.

In order to overcome these shortcomings of the prior art, it is necessary to develop a tooth cleaning tool that can clean an oral cavity and teeth quickly and effectively over a large area, and can also clean difficult-to-clean parts such as tooth gaps under visual conditions specially and finely.
